Senior🎓
Top SchoolMatthew Valimaki is a Staff DevOps Engineer with 11 years of experience building and scaling cloud-native infrastructure across GCP and AWS, currently running Kubernetes and GitOps workflows at Cyberhaven from Las Vegas. He combines hands-on architecture work—designing release-driven, decoupled application stacks and container OS for physical devices—with platform automation using Terraform, HashiCorp tools, and CI/CD best practices. A pragmatic operator, he has stood up high-availability production clusters and 24/7 Level 3 support teams while instrumenting real-time observability with Datadog and other monitoring stacks. Matthew leverages AI daily to automate, optimize, and troubleshoot, and his open-source contributions to Alpine-based Docker containers include consul-template integration for dynamic configuration and service discovery. That blend of production leadership, systems design, and tooling craftsmanship makes him adept at turning legacy systems into resilient, observable cloud platforms.
